- The young rapper who was experiencing writer's block. (Seriously? You have to be inspired to write lyrics like, "This is why I'm hot. This is why I'm hot. This is why, this is why, this is why I'm hot." ??? I think not.) He wanted a rhyming dictionary. I wanted to tell him that I didn't think that there was an Oxford Rhyming Dictionary of Extremely Offensive Words. However, he seemed happy when he did his gimp-limp strut out of the store with his ordinary rhyming dictionary. And music is sure to live on.
- "Do you have the book, How to Kill A Mockingbird? I can't find it on the computer." Oh honey, it isn't a "how-to" book. Yep. *sigh* (Keep smiling. Keep smiling.)
I'm back at the bookstore in just a few short hours. I remind myself that I get a free book a week and a discount on new and used titles. And the amusing customers are just one more perk.
